[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are a former DCPS family (w/experience in both EOTP and WOTP schools) that moved to MCPS (BCC cluster). Both school systems have positives and negatives. For example, the experience at different schools in MCPS is much more even than in DCPS. MCPS still uses busing in some areas to achieve diversity, and they don't allow PTAs to pay for staff like DCPS does. But if you are in a school in DCPS that benefits from having parents give money to the PTA to hire more teachers--then I think MCPS would be a downgrade. Generally I think MCPS is a lot strong for MS/HS, and there are ES/MS magnet/G&T programs, which DCPS doesn't have (at least that I'm aware of). Happy to answer questions about our experience if people have any.[/quote] Read he threads regarding the magnet application process this year.[/quote]
